Do you remember the last time someone told you "I love you"? How did it make you feel?
Saying "I love you" is one of the simplest yet most powerful things we can do. It's a way to show someone that we care about them, that we're thinking of them, and that we're grateful to have them in our lives.
But sometimes, we forget to say those three little words. We assume that our loved ones already know how we feel, so we don't bother to tell them.
That's a mistake. Life is short, and we never know what might happen tomorrow. If we don't tell our loved ones how we feel, we might regret it later.
Ini Cash's words on the ITASS podcast really entered deep into me: "Life is extremely short... There are some people that we have the chance to tell them we love them, but we didn't, and now we don't see them again."
His words echoed the painful truth that many of us have experienced: the loss of a loved one, and the haunting regret of not expressing our love when we had the chance.
So, why do we hesitate to say those three simple words: "I love you"? Is it fear of vulnerability? Fear of rejection? Or is it simply a habit of assuming that our loved ones already know?
Whatever the reason, it's time to break free from the chain of assumption and hesitation. It's time to make saying "I love you" a habit and a way of life.
Because when we say "I love you," we're not just expressing a feeling – we're giving a gift. A gift of validation, of acceptance, and of love.
So, take a moment today to tell someone you love them. It could be a family member, a friend, or even a stranger who could use a kind word.
Remember, life is short, and love is the thread that weaves us together. Let's make every moment count, and every word matter.
